"U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro" is in itself just a stunningly upsetting thing every time I see it.

My eye groups all the things that are in the same big fancy font, so it looks like Putin is on the menu..

The economic indicators we so often look at - jobs report, price index, etc., - are there legitimate complaints to be had about them? Given data availability, could the methods be better?

Well they used to be more so. Now I see Trumpers defending his actions by saying how much crime has fallen, as though it just happened in this year.

And investements selected by him "as President". Like he's twisting the knife a little by highlighting that now he gets to choose these things instead of congress.

I don't like the idea of term limits. It's not like we have a surplus of competent and honest people who are wanting to be politicians, so being forced to lose one when we find them is not great, and I don't see how having new people to take on the roles all the time is automatically beneficial.

He really does. The NYT does a recurring article with "best of" late night show jokes, Colbert, Kimmel, etc., and they include bits from this guy's own show (to be fair and balanced, I guess?) and they're always just dumb.

There's a reason he loves telling that "the snake" story to big crowds of his followers

I doubt they even actually want a trial, they just want to create and fuel conspiracies.

The term gaslighting has become way overused, and indeed generally in situations where they could just say lying.

Weak attempt at a distraction is exactly right. I honestly do not expect them to try to take Obama to trial or much of anything else. They just want to gin up stories, fan the flames, and then drop it and move on.

Ehh I don't know, I wouldn't count him out yet.

People need to stop putting close-up shots of his face in their stories. I'm trying to scroll here without throwing up.

This is a nightmare. If you see this and only think about it's whoever's fault or make excuses about why this is happening then you need to take some time to reflect. Yes, there's absolutely blame to be had. This needs to stop now, regardless of context. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/24/w...

I remember when this came out I was following Tom on the other site, and he had already been routinely commenting on Vance. Tom was absolutely calling him out for being an opportunistic a-hole before most people even knew he existed.

So often ignored in this. In large part he was just trying to get the loan servicers to make good on *existing* loan forgiveness programs like the PSLF.

Researchers have been using methods like machine learning and so on for many years, as they should. The things that are now, by social construction, getting the "AI" label, are pretty much just the dog shit part. Though I admit that that is all getting into varied individual definitions.

cuberoot1973.bsky.social @cuberoot1973.bsky.social · 13/07/2025

Defenders of the usefulness of AI, please just stop. It's like saying agent orange is good for removing weeds or asbestos for fireproofing or ..

As an American who spent some time there, I love this. It bothers me when people think all Arabic countries are basically Saudi or Taliban ruled and that's the culture in general. - They do in fact like to party, including alcohol - Yes, even Muslims - And they have seriously hopping nightclubs

Oof, come to think of it, this is assuming a *uniform* distribution 😬

cuberoot1973.bsky.social @cuberoot1973.bsky.social · 08/07/2025

I've heard of assuming a normal distribution, but this is ridiculous

I guess I still have some forms of hope left alive in me, because I had hoped these letters would be written better than his posts. Seeing this writing style in this format is somehow all the more jarring.

cuberoot1973.bsky.social @cuberoot1973.bsky.social · 07/07/2025

I don't believe anything from these people, and maybe there really is a list and all that, but at the same time I wouldn't be surprised to find out that in fact there really isn't.

It's also not how the mail works. "I want you to deliver these letters starting 12 PM on Monday!" Underpaid postal worker at the counter: "Um, sure thing, will do, Mr. President.."

cuberoot1973.bsky.social @cuberoot1973.bsky.social · 07/07/2025

He's oddly specific about when the first mail deliveries will be made.

Had to stop at the second one, made my stomach turn

Letters, eh? Anyone can send an email, but this must be serious!

Mentally unblur the text in the background and can't come up with anything that makes sense..

As bad as the spread of AI images is the habit of people calling other people "bots" when they don't like what they have to say. And people will even say "I looked at their profile and they're a bot", when their profile shows them having lots of actual human engagement, replies, etc.

But wait, that would mean ... He's also a fentanyl-smuggling rapist who escaped from an insane asylum and likes eating cats and dogs!!! SAD

Kinda like when they see "LGBTQ+" they think of it as a list of porn categories.

cuberoot1973.bsky.social @cuberoot1973.bsky.social · 30/06/2025

Because "black". Just one big monolithic homogeneous everywhere global issue, and if black people are involved, like for some weird reason in Rwanda and the Congo, then that must be mostly what it's about. /s, just to be clear

Because people actually do watch it and the sport is growing.
